Yes, I have read it, but it doesn't really answer my question.  I'm not asking if I can 
boot from RAM, I'm asking why would someone think it could be done?  If anything, 14.2.1 
re-inforces my point: if booting from RAM doesn't make sense, why are so many board header 
files configured to enable it?
